On the Commons

On the Commons (OTC) is a commons movement strategy center founded in 2001. Through our efforts, we help:

  • Build and bring visibility to the commons movement;
  • Initiate and catalyze commons work; and,
  • Develop and encourage commons leadership.

We believe it is possible to foster a commons-based society, which refers to a shift away from our market-based system, through new, collaborative ways of working.
